About Emily

Hi! I’m Emily, a professional vocalist, performer and voice and piano teacher with a background in musical theater and contemporary music. I trained at the American Musical and Dramatic Academy in New York City and have spent many years performing around the world as a guest entertainer, in musicals, in live bands and at private events. My experience spans musical theater, pop, jazz and classic standards, so I can meet students wherever they are stylistically while building strong technical foundations.

As a teacher, I focus on creating a supportive, confidence-building space where students feel safe to explore their voices and express themselves. My lessons emphasize healthy vocal technique, ear training, basic music theory and age-appropriate musicianship. I aim to make learning fun, empowering and inspiring while helping students build real skills they can carry with them for life.

Get to know Emily

How I got started

My whole family is very musical and I was always surrounded by music. I realized I loved singing when I was very young.

What I love to play

Musical theater is my one true love!

My advice for beginners

Sing and play things you like! You’ll work harder on music you really feel connected to.

A favorite teaching moment

When a singer has been struggling to balance their vocal registers and we tap into what that elusive “mix belt” feels like. That “aha!” moment is the best.

An obstacle I overcame

I had to work a lot on the break in my voice between registers. It was so exciting when I finally made real progress on it!

What’s next for me

I’m still actively performing and auditioning, and I’m hoping to make my Broadway debut!
